DAKOTA's ICE GoRGEs.
Bismarck's River Front the Scene of
Heavy Losses.

BiSmarck's River Front the Scene of
Heavy Losses.
BISMARCK, OAK, March 18.-Wash-
burne gorge broke last night, and early
this morning the river began to rise rap
idly. A gorge was formed below the city.
The ice carried everything with it and
struck the warehouse OF the Northern
Pacific. The wOrkmen narrowly escaped
drowning, and IN less than TWO hours
from the time of the gorge water was in
the second stories of the river boarding
houses, which had been built on what
was considered nigh ground. The ware
house, which is nearly 700 feet in length,
was moved bodily of 30 feet and sent
crashing against the bluffs. The loss on
the building will be ovei $4,000.
NEWLY MADE CHANNEL.
The meadow land south of Bismarck,
comprising 5000 acres, is a newly made
channel in this body of surplus water
rushing at the rate Of ten miles an hour.
The river at this point, which is usually
three-quarters of mile wide, is now over
six miles in width. Northern Pacific
trains will be unable TO cross the river
for several days, and Bismarck will be
the western terminus for week. Super

Mandam, but the water on the west side
of the river is flowing tour feet deep over
the-track, and the fires in the engine were
put out.
MANDAN SUBMERGED.
Mandan is submerged and the people
In the lower part OF the city have been
moving into the upper stories of their
dwellings. All the small dwellings on
the banks OF the stream have been swept
away or destroyed, aud steamboats, lying
at ROckhaven are in danger.
The high trestle OF the Northern Pacific
at this point has been damaged. At
O'Clock this afternoon the new channel
which the river had cut across the prairie
let out the ice and the river has since
fallen slowly, but the worst has not come.
The ice went out az Fort Buford this
morning with a rise OF thirty feet, the
highest ever known. This food will not
reach here until Saturday, when there
will probably be terrible destruction. The
loss at the river landing on the meadow
land here already will reach $4,000.
